EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the intense moment when the 92nd Highlanders and 2nd Gurkhas stormed the Gaudi Mullah Sahibdad at Kandahar, Afghanistan in 1880. The color litho artwork by Richard Caton Woodville II beautifully depicts this historical event that took place during the late 19th century. In this scene, we witness the bravery and determination of these British soldiers as they engage in battle against Afghan forces. The rugged mountains of Afghanistan serve as a dramatic backdrop to this clash between two opposing forces. It is a testament to the strength and resilience of both sides involved in this conflict. The image brings to life an important chapter in British colonial history, showcasing their military might and involvement in foreign lands during what was known as "the Great Game". The composition highlights not only the soldiers' physical prowess but also their strategic planning and coordination as they storm into enemy territory. Woodville's attention to detail allows us to immerse ourselves in this historic moment, feeling almost like participants rather than mere observers. This print serves as a reminder of the sacrifices made by these brave men who fought for their country's interests overseas. Overall, it is a powerful depiction of warfare from an era long gone but still resonates with its viewers today.
